Joash knew that Bruce wouldn’t simply use a woman’s photo for his home screen, considering his
personality,
After the man had taken the bun from him, Joash queried softly, “Did that woman not hurt you enough,
Mr. Gable? Why are you still pining for her?”
At that, Bruce snorted. “Do you think I am stupid enough to do that?”
“Then… Then, who’s the woman on your phone’s home screen?” Joash pointed at the man’s phone on
his lap. “Don’t tell me that it’s the system’s wallpaper. I don’t believe that!”
At once, Bruce swept his gaze over, the look in his eyes cold.
Joash flinched slightly. “You had no privacy glass, so I accidentally saw it.”
“Keep your mouth shut from now on. I’ll deduct five hundred for every single word out of your mouth.
When we arrive at the studio later, go and buy me a privacy glass for my phone,” Bruce ordered
placidly.
Just as Joash was about to reply in the affirmative, he remembered the man’s warning. He instantly

Meanwhile, at the VIP lounge in Jadeborough Airport, Genevieve swiped her finger up, scanning her
eyes over every sentence of her conversation with Bruce.
Why should I tell him where I‘m going on a business trip? And I even chatted so much with him.
She was going to Baykeep because she had something to do there.
To her surprise, Martin from Lightview Group phoned her last night.
The person in charge of the film festival that year happened to be his friend, who not only knew that
Genevieve was the owner of Genevieve Orsi Productions but also that she excellent at playing the
violin. Coincidentally, the film festival was going to be at Martin’s resort, so he asked Martin to speak to
her.
Genevieve agreed without giving it much thought.
After all, Martin’s Lightview Group was one of the largest companies in Baykeep and was very much
prestigious. If he were to owe her a favor, it would be far easier for her to do anything in
Baykeep in the future,
At eleven-thiry in the morning, the plane landed at Baykeep Airport right on the dot.
Wheeling her suitcase, Cenevieve exited the airport lobby. She unlocked her phone to call a taxi.
An elderly man with gray hair beside her coughed violently, seemingly in poor health. He took out a
medicine bone from his pocket, but it fell onto the ground and rolled over to her feet.
Genevieve picked up the medicine bottle. instinctively glancing at the label on it.
It was medication to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
She happened to have a bottle of mincral water in her bag, so she unscrewed the cap and handed it to
the elderly man. Then, she took two pills from the medicine bottle and placed them in his hand.
The elderly man furtively studied her with his sharp eyes.
In a long, black dress, Genevieve appeared young, but her aura was sharp. Her beautiful eyes carried
a faint hint of tenderness.
Her warm and familiar eyes had Herbert plunging into a daze…
For some inexplicable reason, he trusted the young lady before him. Tossing the two pills into his
mouth, he drank a few mouthfuls of water and swallowed them.
He flashed Genevieve a smile. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Genevieve smiled back at him in return. Then, she even urged, “It’s not good to
swallow such medicine dry, mister. In the future, carry a bottle of water with you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing that, Herbert nodded.
At that precise moment, an Audi SUV drove over and stopped in front of them both.
The driver hastily got out of the car. Circling over, he murmured to Herbert apologetically, “There was a
rear-end collision on the highway, so I was stuck there for a bit.”

The bodyguard who went to retrieve the luggage had also returned by then.
The instant he glimpsed a young lady standing so close to Herbert, his gaze constricted, and he
seemingly went into battle mode. However, Herbert surreptitiously waved a dismissive hand at him.
Smiling, he asked Genevieve, “Is someone coming to pick you up, young lady?”
“Nope. I’m going to call a taxi online.”
“In that case, hitch a ride with me. I’ll have my driver send you to the city. It so happens that I don’t
know how to thank you after you helped me pick up my medicine earlier and gave me a bottle of water,”
Herbert suggested.
Genevieve was stunned for a moment. “It was nothing, so don’t take it to heart.”
“It was nothing to you, but you did me a great favor. Do allow my driver to send you. Besides, you’ll all
have to wait if you call a taxi online,” Herbert boomed.
